Verdict
MR SCARAMANGA has not raced since well beaten in a valuable sales race at the Curragh in September. But he’s rated 99 on his earlier second in Listed company at Newbury and should take the beating in this despite carrying a penalty. Mazaaji looks next-best on a recent fourth at Wolverhampton BUT steps up in trip along with Ocean Promise while King Of Scotland drops back in distance after a modest debut effort over 1m2f.
